    5pin into a 4pin relay

    Check the pinout label diagram on the 4pin and compare to the 5pin relay. Generally if pinouts and match then yes the 5th pin isn't used. As long as there is a slot in the middle for pin 5 to slide into

    Vs commodore steering wheel buttons

    Most do have the provision for them that need to be wired in. Some have a converter box and others won't. They are resistive type so check your chosen headunit. You will need to hook into the loom from the column to connect to the headunit

    Do I need to roll guards on 17 inch wheels on sssl

    Might as well check the clearance you have now, you'll know if you need to roll or not. Alternatively remove the spring and let it down slow to check clearance

    Do I need to roll guards on 17 inch wheels on sssl

    Depends on the offset of the wheels. Holden rims shouldn't need to.. Guessing no camber kit? It'll wear on the inside (bad) and give you the clearance needed not to roll your guards (good)

    VP ute best rim offset?

    From memory vn vp irs is 10mm shorter, but unsure on live axle. Very rough calc, 9.5rim +40 would be about flush, but best measured which axle in and set in position. Flush with outer guard or just inside the lip? Also rolled lip or untouched? Gotta allow for suspension travel etc

    VP ute best rim offset?

    Depends on the rim width of the steelie I guess. Best measure from the hub surface to the lip, then do the math for the width

    Roof mounted antenna

    Maybe it's not connected from inside. I don't know how it's setup so comment further, but sounds like the cable is acting as the antenna which would explain your patchy reception.

    B.C.M. Problems

    In amongst the shittalk, the conversation is interesting on how the systems works. @Immortality Maybe it's best to split the ECU and BCM functions into its own thread? Would be good to keep it instead of buried, and thr OP can keep his thread and Maybe a result after further diagnosis.

    Vy ls1

    No idea sorry, best way to check is call repco or bursons and ask for each accelerator cable part number. If they match, happy days

    Try reseating the relays, if not replace the EFI and start relays. You had it running until playing in that area.

    EGR and Intake Manifold

    VZ alloytec may not be at all compatible with ecotec egr pipes. No idea but maybe best to get a the correct manifolds or raid the wreckers for a longer one to suit the lower positioned erg.

    Help rewiring AC to Haltech

    Thermostat switch I believe is in the evaporator, with detects if it's cold or not to control the ac. Yes you can have the ac with heat, which allows you to get other temperatures other than freezing or boiling.

    So they can sprout up to 7years later. Roundup etc can kill th4 plant but that leaves the seeds or prickles. A bit rubber or carpet roller behind a tractor is the best way to pick them up as best as possible. Will take a few passes to get majority. From there regular walk throughs to...

    Value and selling of a VF 2014 Redline with W kit

    Above is great advice, independent dealers can be good, if not happy walk away. Other option for private is meet 5kms at a servo or some other place that is not near home for those that want to meet and see the car. It also means taking the long way home so they don't follow you.

    Centre bearing should be centred with minimal sagging. How easy is it to move/shake the tailshaft up/down side to side? It should move a bit but not half the radius

    Plunging & fixed CV axle drive shafts

    They should move in and out at both ends, and should both pivot for angular movement. I know new CVs can be stiff, but havent heard of a end that won't move. Can you slide the boot to inspect the end that won't move?

    What material are VR GTS wheels

    Thanks everyone, been reading up on ceramic coating and there is a lot of products out there. First thing everyone mentions is get the finish done first, so I've re hit No 3 rim with polish. Looking at a tiny 30ml liquid ceramic for $60 or more, over the spray on larger bottle. Reviews say...
